Uday and Qusay Hussein, sons of deposed Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, were killed on July 22, 2003, in the city of Mosul, Iraq, in an operation that devolved into a four-hour shootout outside a fortified safehouse where the brothers were hiding. Few know it better than John 'Shrek' McPhee of course - that's why he weighed in on how it all went down - and how the brothers went out - in this exclusive clip from Episode #195 of the Mike Drop Podcast.

Oh boy. This is the interview we’ve been waiting for.
I could watch Shrek on repeat. He’s just infectious.
Still waiting
Amen
He's is definitely cut from a different breed and a huge trip .. he'll tell it like it is
Yo Mike drop this classic brother
Shrek is the man. It’s so refreshing getting a bit of that old school, hard mentality in a world that has gone completely soft.
👌🏼👌🏼
He turns you on, eh?
Saddam with Christians is something id never heard. Really interesting.
Yep, the Deputy Prime Minister was a Christian named Tariq Aziz. Essentially the 2nd highest dude in Iraq. He was a Nationalist and banned Socialist parties that had Communist/Marxist ideologies. Supposedly guilty of war crimes by, most likely, Bush cronies propped up in the Iraqi government/courts.
Maybe he was a really bad man, maybe he wasn’t.
Saddam used many Iraqi Christians for government posts, especially ones close to him only ones he can trust
I was about to post about Tariq Aziz myself... He was one of Saddam's most trusted men, if not indeed his right hand man. And yes, an Iraqi Christian. It should surprise no one that the dictator Saddam would display Machiavellian tendencies... He was nothing if not a ruthless autocrat who constantly kept his eye out for potential threats to his power, any and all opportunities to seize upon and usurp any rival movements or individuals, or summarily destroy them if they failed to cede or otherwise fall in line. This would include maintaining a strategically structured leadership hierarchy surrounding him, the innermost, closest advisors and cabinet often belonging to key minority religious communities or tribes, which afforded Saddam leverage among key populations across the nation. In exchange for their allegiance, he would offer protection, positions in governance at the local or federal level, subsidized access to valuable commodities such as food, petroleum products, water, electricity, etc, or prime opportunities for development or other economic or political openings otherwise not available to those outside of this patronage network.
Doesn’t sound very Christian like!
Do you realize Christianity started in the middle east😂
The smile on his face and the joy he gets from re telling stories is incredible
If there is only one quote to truly take out of this interview it is "We created that market for foreign fighters to come and die".
Oh man , the Sheriff barely does podcasts lol. This will be 1 hell of an episode. 💪🇺🇸💪 can’t wait
plus he’s on @shawnryanshow coming soon; long overdue- been waiting weeks for both of these
Shrek is such a crazy dude. We been friends for years and always love hanging out with him.
Lies
@@kilakr13 question is, is he a troll or a douche who makes up sht for attention?
It’s so funny how there always seems to be a couple of comments on these kind of podcast from people claiming to know the person on the podcast
@@FJ24.They're not celebrities or hard to get to or be around. These guys worked and dirt on their hands just like a lot of people who worked and served in the field as these guests. Its completely believable that a couple of people might know the guests and may have worked with them. Lol if it was David Lee Roth or Tom Cruise sure. .probably bullshit but these dudes are just dudes who did cool shit and killed bad guys
It's not hard to believe people know people. I grew up knowing tom satterlys family. We all grew up in Columbus Indiana together. I don't normally mention it in comments section. He's the reason. I joined the marines. People do know people though. It's quite normal
Never thought id see this guy on a SEAL show
I mean, SF and SO do have similar responsibilities, and results for that matter.
Doesn't seem like that much of a stretch to have him on the show really.
@@Mr._Infamous he talks constant shit about them bro
@anthonylewis1980 oh, you mean the guest.
Well, that may be true.
It's probably the same kind of s*** everybody else is talking about them right now, though.
I'm sure deep down he actually respects the SEALs and what they do.
We all do.
@@Mr._Infamous John McPhee
@@Mr._Infamous he must at least like mike
This dude and Clark Impasato would be the best two dudes to drink with. This was phenomenal. Thank you both.
Heck yeah! Clark is hilarious.
Shrek is awesome.
Dude these two talking is going to be fucking hilarious. Can’t wait
Hell yeah it is
Here's a guy in a war zone going after dangerous targets and he's counseling his team about not initiating deadly violence unless absolutely necessary. Professionalism at it's best.
Is he not talking about using quiet deadly, instead of going loud?
In an indirect way, he's describing the Army unit of which he was an active component and among it's leadership. He is known for asserting that this unit was *the most professional* raid/strike force on the planet, and that this professionalism not only refers to being able to execute the most dangerous, complex and sensitive missions, often within the most challenging of restraints, be they strict time limitations, political sensitivities, the need to operate without communication with higher echelons of authority, which requires that each operator be able to execute and make decisions based on their own knowledge and intellect, often with national or global repercussions, eyc. That professionalism also necessarily connotes the wisdom and capacity to *restrain* one's self from dispensing violence when it is not strictly necessary. Seasoned operators are well-equipped and trained to conduct raids upon houses, compounds, buses and trains, or any number of other structures... But even among the most experienced and talented operators, you might not necessarily find many individuals who possess the capacity to *not* pull the trigger, even if the apparent circumstances might make doing so seem like the appropriate action to take for the vast majority of people. That sort of capacity, among others, is one of the sorts of traits and capacities that this Army unit values and looks for while performing their selection and assessment processes. Yes, once you breach the door, be willing and prepared to kill everyone in sight... However, it is preferable to avoid doing so, and to seek alternative solutions to the tasks at hand, one individual at a time, until this particular house or structure has been cleared and inspected and the team is ready to move on to the next structure.
@@WordToMomsYo this could be the longest youtube comment I've ever read.
@@greatdane3343
But he summed it up pretty good for anybody who couldn't translate John's slang to themselves here it is spelled out for you also don't forget the less you shoot the less they probably shoot the less chance anybody has of getting hit is the main personal reason
@@WordToMomsYoamazing comment bud. Thanks for breaking it down for all the curious types who don't know exactly what he meant.
I've been waiting on this one for a LONG time. I hope this one is 5 hours
This is gonna be a awesome episode 😎
He seems so relaxed and nice. I always appreciate a badass with humor.
SOB is one of the best interviews out there.
Oh shit - looks like McPhee doing the rounds. Love this guy.
He's needs award for best interviews. ( THEY CAME TO DIE , AND WE WERE WILLING TO GIVE IT TO THEM ) LOL
Tim Kennedy on Shawn Ryan Show about John McPhee
"..He is one of those guys in garrison,
he is not a fun human to work for, he's definitely not one that you want as your personal mentor about how to be a good human,
but, you put John McPhee in a case in glass that says 'Break in case of war or violence'
and you break that and he is one of the greatest war fighters to like walk during GWOT (Global War On Terrorism). "
glad John is on our team
😂
Oh man - I can't believe you've got the Sheriff on. Can't wait!! He's hilarious and LEGIT!
This is going to be one of the best ones yet I can’t wait I wish he could get him hooked up with srs also I enjoy both Mike and Shaun’s way of interviewing it’s out of the box and genuine
I think he already did the SRS not too long ago. It just hasn't been released yet.
@@rodpalmer1454 that is awesome I hope so I really think that these two gentleman have a gift for interviewing and it’s next level
Yea John stated on one of his YT Shorts that he did both shows. I've been waiting to see which one would drop first and it looks like Mike's. It should be a good one !!
2 Midwest guys talking combat, good times!
Nah. John is from Chicago.
@@JB-td9fz aka the heart of the midwest haha
@@HotBoxTrucking lol I know. He's from South Chicago
Southside of Chicago with Mississippi roots - 💪
This episode is gonna be 10 out of 10!!
At first I thought his shirt said “ Strangle Things” AAAAAAAGH
😂😂😂😂 LOL
Shrek !!! Both of you are badass!!! Thank you
Fark yeah Mike..you got him on!!🫡👍
Great stuff! Shrek is what we need in all special operations.
Qusay and Uday are ead Day.
😀 i cheered when i heard that, nearly got me kicked out of the Library😁
Shrek been sippin
Dude sounds real chill!!!
Wow Mike u got him before Shaun ?!?! This will be epic
I’m really looking forward to the full interview!
This will be amazing!!!! John is amazing!!! This will be the best show and I can’t wait
The shrek guy w/ the white hair is a refreshingly non-pulsed type of guy - no need for hyperbole or enhancing facts w/ fictional details
Fair play Mike. You get all the best guests
Well...This one is going to be one helluva ride.🤣
excited for the drop
Shrek is high on life man 😂😂😂 the Sheriff is in town bois
I've seen several Shrek interviews. He is a great interview.
When does this release?
Born to like people versus born to hate people. That was deep
McPhee is the $hit!!!! He said he was gonna be on the ShawnRyanShow soon too
SHERIFF OF BAGHDAD!
When's the whole interview drop
God bless America. Thanks Mike for everything.
Looking forward
oh YES!!! Looking forward to this!!
Ooooweeeee this one I’m really looking forward to!
I like the clips of grip.
I never thought of Mike as the small dude, then shrek walked in the room
Wuuuuuuuuuuuuu this is gonna be great, love this man
Bro where's the full podcast
It states on the link that the video's private
Hasn't dropped yet ....
It's coming he always does previews first but if this is airing means gonna be least least hour of interview
I watch the Delta Ac/DC recruiting video daily for antidote to the darkness and motivation
Holy fuck.
Edit: I've been waiting on this one
I heard it was a wild battle, but it hit the fan when the dog got killed. They pulled everyone out and leveled the building.
He’s easy going and funny as hell, but I’ve heard he was a ball busting Sergeant Major!!! 👊🏻🇺🇸
One of my all time favourites for sure... tells a story like I'm not sure anyone else can- stranger than fiction.
Keep 'em up Mike- I'll give you all of my 10 minutes.
Drop this fucking episode.
I love it!
Thank you sir you've made my day
When will the full interview/podcast be released?
they lit they asses up
Classic… John is the man!
Also in the "deck of cards" was the head of the Iraqi Chemical Weapons Program. You know those same weapons of mass destruction that people screamed "We invaded Iraq under false pretences Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction!"
I can't find the blonde kid that interviewed John but there is one spot he went to and was going in but then he realized his team stopped and he stood back asking them are you giys going in with me??? They said no way his hair on every part of his body stood up and then he realized this is pure evil!!!!! He then stopped and left.... I suppose the question the kid asked was have you ever experienced pure evil....John did he then stated there was something evil in that place like I've never experienced and it does exist.....
The video is private?
Dont have someone on that will explain the true history on saddam, afghanistan (1980’s bush cia) this guy doesnt know just like most american civillians. The problem now is most of the american public is hearing about it and exploring it, and applying it to todays operations
When I hear the word ranger, it is that man I imagine
At last, lets goo
A great man named Tyson was on that hit.
This guy is like the Delta Force Jeff Spicoli.
I was there that day. With the 101st
He said " they're Christians. They're not born to hate you." Neither are Muslims. There are plenty of Muslims whose hearts aren't filled with hate.
SHREK!!!!!!!!!!!!🎉
When he says the army wanted to take over toward the end, is he meaning the Iraqi army or US army? Curious as to why it sucks when "the army wants to take over". Is it just more red tape to have to cut through to do your own job?
He means the conventional us army instead of special operations. Same happened in Afghanistan, special operations forces were very effective at the beginning
@@jamesgeorge9467i heard SF was highly effective against the Taliban
6:48 Yeah, that'd be a war crime, buddy.
FUCK YES!!! SHREKKKKKKKKKKK
yup i was there iraq 2003-2004 mosul
Fallujah?
Odd ball observation. The interview chair looks very uncomfortable in that the interviewee has to sit on an angle.
I want that shirt!
Yeah!!!
Uday and Qusa are heros
Like like like like come on bro
I was on FOB Falcon, 2005, 1/184 Air Assault (CA NG). We had South Bagdad. OMG, the shit we did. Our Battalion Commander relieved of duty first month. My 1st Sgt, relieved of duty 2nd month. We fuckin got down!!!!!
Lol, I remember that. I was in 3/7 IN
Let's goo!!!!!
thanks to the delta operator who let me use the sat phone to call home 2003 refuel mission
If his stories were true they'd be a lot better.
U didn’t get uday and qsay. Then Mike asked if u got any deck of cards and he says them 2.
Limbaugh with a goatee.
YESSSS!!!!
"We created that market on foreign fighters, and they came to die like ya read about..."
He’s my neighbor, I just asked him and he said he doesn’t know you!
2nd. Texas!!!
MEN OF BATTLE
🫡
This dude scares the fk outta me tbh
Hell yea
I really don’t know but he seems high on something. Maybe I’m wrong. I hope I am
high on life!!
Born to be nice to people😂😂😂 omg
Fkkkn love this dude... If politics weren't so damn corrupt from the ground up, I'd say "Shrek for Pres" or some shit like that.. Ahh, but alas, he's far too good of a human for such a fundamentally unscrupulous enterprise.
I think certain dudes have seen so much, they come home and don’t give a fuck about how to act. They don’t care what you think about them. Aka Shrek the Sheriff of Baghdad. lol.
MURICA!!! FUCK YEA!!!💪🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸
